I just stumbled upon Prayer To The Sky,and it literally took my breathe away,again !.I was suprised by seeing it,as if it was new to me,and that I had never seen it before,which is not true at all,because when it does return from Quilt Nationals'tour,it will be hung in my own personal space,in my bedroom,so that I can begin and end each day with its' presence.I anticipate the day when it arrives here so I can welcome it into my world,my Life.
Ralph, I am so proud that you have added Prayer To the Sky to your collection, and I too look forward to the day it returns to Canada and can be part of your daily life. xo
I was looking through your blog.Again,the image took my breath away.It has almost gotten here;you,Ned and I will meet in Fergus October 03 as you are on your way home,and Prayer will finally be here.The anticipation of finally getting to see it/touch it first hand is becoming an intense experience,but the actual moment is yet to come,and I know it will be such a special moment indeed,and I get to hug Prayer. Ralph
